Re: drivers..
Since I believe the XWin is the real X server, I don't use the startxwin.bat
script and run dirrectly:
XWin -screen 0 800x600x16 -whitepixel 255 -blackpixel 0
Then I have the error:
cannot load xf_dx.dll

============================
The startxwin.bat is:
@echo off
SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
SET PATH=%PATH%;e:\apps\win32\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin;e:\apps\win32\cygwin\usr\bin
start XWin -screen 0 800x600x16 -whitepixel 255 -blackpixel 0
start /B xterm -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black -e bash
start /B rxvt -fn "Lucidia Console-12"
start /B vtwm
